Cheek Filler
How Does It Work?
The chosen filler is injected deep into the facial tissue to temporarily add volume and structure. It acts like natural, youthful fat pads over bony facial structures, attracting moisture to the area for added volume and lift. The product contains lidocaine for maximum comfort during the procedure.
How Comfortable Is the Treatment?
The treatment, which can range from 15 minutes to an hour depending on the areas addressed, is designed for patient comfort. Lidocaine in the filler reduces injection site pain, and a topical numbing cream can be used to minimize discomfort further. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure.
How Long Does It Take to See Results?
Cheek Filler offers immediate results with effects proven to last up to two years. Touch-up and repeat injections might be needed for optimal correction, with less material required for subsequent injections.
What Is the Postcare?
After the treatment, it's advised to avoid strenuous exercise, extensive sun or heat exposure, and alcoholic beverages for 24 hours to prevent temporary redness, swelling, or itching at the injection sites. Ice packs can be used to reduce swelling, and patients should consult their provider on when to apply makeup post-treatment.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
One treatment is generally sufficient to achieve optimal results. However, since the correction is temporary, touch-up injections, maybe once a year, are recommended to maintain the desired outcome. Repeat injections typically require less material.
